We've released a new free software for Windows:

APIVoid SFTP Terminal is a fast Windows client for SSH, SFTP, FTP/FTPS, WebDAV, and Amazon S3. Its key features include tabbed sessions in a dual-pane interface, a built-in text editor (with the option to convert files to Unix LF line endings), split view with SSH terminals, and an optional broadcast mode for sending keystrokes to all connected servers simultaneously. Configure and manage SSH keys, jump hosts, proxies, and known hosts, then easily assign them to saved sessions. Protect your credentials with Windows DPAPI and an optional master password. Generate RSA, Ed25519, and ECDSA SSH keys, and export them in OpenSSH or PPK format. The SSH terminal includes a feature-rich right-click menu for copy/paste, uploading files, editing files with the built-in text editor, downloading files, and running quick commands (snippets). You can also execute commands and bash scripts on multiple servers with a single click.

You can find more details, FAQs, and the full list of features on the product page:

APIVoid SFTP Terminal - Overview

Thank you for sharing this release. For members considering new networking or file-transfer utilities like this, a few general security-related points are worth keeping in mind before deployment, especially since this tool handles credentials and remote server connections.

General Safety Recommendations for New Tools
  • Always download directly from the official product page linked in the announcement rather than third-party mirrors.
  • Before installing on a production or work machine, it's good practice to scan the installer with a reputable antivirus and optionally check it on VirusTotal, since even legitimate new tools can occasionally trigger false positives from heuristic engines.
  • Since credentials are involved (SSH keys, SFTP, S3, WebDAV logins), verify that the option to use Windows DPAPI and a master password is enabled, as mentioned in the description, this reduces the risk of credential exposure if the system is compromised.
  • For SSH key generation features (RSA, Ed25519, ECDSA), Ed25519 is generally considered a strong modern default by many in the security community due to its smaller key size and resistance to certain implementation flaws, though RSA and ECDSA remain widely supported for compatibility with older systems.

Feature Notes

The broadcast mode for sending keystrokes to multiple connected servers and the ability to run scripts across multiple servers simultaneously are convenient for sysadmins managing fleets of servers, but this type of feature also increases the blast radius of a mistake (e.g., an incorrect command sent to all sessions at once). Users working with production systems may want to test such features in a lab or staging environment first.

For anyone evaluating this tool further, the official product page linked in the original post is the best source for full feature details and FAQs.
